Definitions

  • the invention relates to the connection of an electrical device to a cable carrying an information flow, the connection consisting in putting the device in series with the cable which is an information bus.
  • serial links are commonly used in local bus transmission networks, the bus generally being a cable constituted by a shielded pair, for protection against external electrical disturbances.
  • the object of the invention is to connect a device to a bus, for putting it in series with said bus at any point on the bus without causing significant disturbance of the flow of information passing through the bus, therefore without setting out of service of the link.
  • connection socket for a cable in particular for a shielded pair cable comprising a drain, a first and a second wire insulated inside a metal sheath coated with an insulating sheath, characterized in that '' it comprises a support and a cut-off device, that said support comprises a housing for the cut-off device, a first and a second set of contact pieces with insulating shear, the contact pieces of each set being arranged apart and on the other side of the housing, that said insulating and metallic sheaths being removed at the place where the connection plug must be laid, the first wire of the cable is inserted in the contact pieces of the first set and the second wire of the cable is inserted in the contact parts of the second set, that a branch cable, also shielded, connected to an electrical device has four wires each connected to a contact part of the first and second coin sets contact, and that the cutting device is pressed into the housing to cut the first and second wires of the cable and put said electrical device in series with
  • FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a connection plug of the invention.
  • the cable 1 is a shielded pair with drain, 2 and 3 being the wires of the pair, 4 the drain, 5 a metal shielding sheath coated with an insulating sheath 60.
  • a notch of length L is made at the location of the connection, the outer insulating sheath of the cable and the metallic sheath 5 being removed; on each side of the notch the outer sheath is removed over a short length L1, so as to release the metal sheath 5.
  • the notch provides access to the two wires 2 and 3, and to the drain 4 in metallic and electrical contact with the interior of the metal sheath 5.
  • the wire 2 is connected, in a support 50, to contact parts 6 and 7 and the wire 3 is connected to contact parts 8 and 9.
  • a branch cable 20, shielded, comprising four wires 21, 22, 23, 24 connects an electrical device 30 to the connection socket; the wires 21 to 24 are connected to the contact pieces 6 to 9, respectively.
  • the contact parts 6 to 9 are of the insulating shear type, so that the wires 2 and 3 of the cable 1 are not cut.
  • the device 30 is placed in series with the wires 2, 3, by cutting the wires 2 and 3 between the contact parts 6 and 7 on the one hand and 8 and 9 on the other hand. This cutting is carried out using a cutting device 10 sliding in a housing, when the device 30 is put into service.
  • the continuity of the internal shielding of the cable 1 is ensured by a shielding 11 connecting the ends 5a and 5b of the metal sheath 5 on each side of the notch. Similarly the ends 5a and 5b are connected by shields 12 and 13 to the metal sheath 19 of the cable 20 which is located on a lateral outlet of the support.
  • the drain 4 is connected to the shield 11 by the contacts 35 and 36 placed on either side of the cut-off device 10 which in no way acts on this continuity link.
  • Figure 2 is a schematic top view and Figure 3 is a schematic elevational view, partially broken away, of a connector of the invention.
  • Figure 3 is a schematic elevational view, partially broken away, of a connector of the invention.
  • the same references as in Figure 1 have the same meaning.
  • the support 5 comprises a housing constituted by two compartments 28 and 29 in which the cutting device 10 slides.
  • the compartment 28 is located between the contact pieces 6 and 7, and the compartment 29 is located between the contact pieces 8 and 9; these compartments are located on either side of the chute 26, therefore separated by said chute 26 in which the drain 4 is arranged.
  • connection socket also comprises a cover 51 and an insulating sole 52, the parts of which facing the support are metallized.
  • the cover 51 and the support 50 are assembled by means of screws 40 which are screwed into holes 42 in the support, the sole being fixed by screws 41 on the support 50.
  • the breaking device 10 shown in perspective in FIG. 5, is made of insulating material; it has two branches 43, 44, each branch sliding in a compartment and having a U-shaped end whose ends 45, 46 constitute two knives which slide along the walls of the compartments perpendicular to the wire to be cut.
  • the contact pieces 6, 7, 8 and 9 are for example double contact pieces, as shown in FIG. 4; the contact pieces 35 and 36 of the drains are contact pieces of the type with two opposite forks, as is known, or again double contact pieces like the contact pieces 6, 7, 8, 9, in order to be electrically connected to the internal metallization of the support, the sole and the cover, to ensure the mass continuity of the cable 1.
  • the contact part is in the form of a double U with a common base 53.
  • a first U is constituted by the branches A and B and a second U is constituted by the branches C and D.
  • the branches A and B are located on one side of the base 53, and the branches C and D are located from l on the other side of said base, the branches A and B being at 90 ° from the branches C and D.
  • Each branch has a slot F for shearing insulation, as is well known.
  • the contact piece allows the connection of two insulated wires 3 and 23; the wire 3 being inserted in the branches A and B, its conductor 54 comes into contact with the edges of the slots F of these branches; the wire 23 being inserted in the branches C and D, its conductor 55 comes into contact with the edges of the slots F of these branches.
  • the wires 3 and 23 are perpendicular to each other.
  • the contact pieces 6, 7, 8 and 9 being double contact pieces as shown in Figure 4, allow the connection of cables 1 and 20, Figure 1, these cables being perpendicular to each other.
  • FIG. 5 is a schematic perspective view of a connection socket, showing the cut-off device 10 before its introduction into the socket, the cover 51 having an opening 57 for this purpose.
  • This cutting device 10 comprises two harpoons such as 56, one per branch 43, 44 of the cutting device; these harpoons are located on either side of the cut-off device and cooperate with the cover 51 in the low position, to maintain the cut-off device in this position.
  • the outlet of the socket, cable 20 is made laterally on the side thereof; an insulated sleeve 58 maintains and seals the start of the cable 20.
  • connection socket of the invention is done as follows: - A notch is made in the cable 1, at the desired location; the wires 2 and 3 and the drain 4 are placed in the troughs 25, 26, 27 of the support 50, above the contact parts, 6, 7, 8, 9, 35 and 36, - the cable glands 14 and 15 are put in place and the cover 51 is screwed onto the support 50; during fixing, the cover presses on the wires 2 and 3 and on the drain 4 which are thus inserted into the slots F of the contact parts. - The cut-off device 10 is introduced into the opening 57 of the cover 51, and remains in the high position; in this position the wires 2 and 3 are not cut.
  • connection with the device 30 takes place with the sole 52 removed; the wires 21, 22, 23, 24 of the branch cable 20, FIG. 1, are introduced into the lower branches of the contact parts 6, 7, 8, 9, then the sole is screwed onto the support; when fixing the sole, the wires 21 to 24 are inserted into the slots of the lower branches of the contact parts.
  • the cut-off device 10 is then pushed in, and takes the low position; the wires 2 and 3 are cut and the device 30 is placed in series with the wires 2 and 3 of the cable 1.
  • the prominence of the cut-off device 10 visually indicates whether the bypass is operational (10 pressed and locked in the low position) or not (10 prominent and locked in the high position).
